9::00am | <\/strong>While Long Beach may have too few music venues, within city limits you still find a scene that fosters little-known yet fantastic musical artists, as well as musics that defy traditional categorization.<\/p>\n

Chief among the portals of discovery for such art-making during the last seven years has been {open}<\/a>, whose friendly confines has featured everything from national names like Billy Corgan and Dave Navarro to local gems like oto<\/a> and Free Moral Agents<\/a>.1<\/sup> And that’s to say nothing of the “sound art” to which {open} is open, what with co-owner Shea M Gauer being a member of FLOOD, the people who bring us SoundWalk<\/a> every year.<\/p>\n

Walk through the doors of {open} on Saturday, September 10, and you’ll get a little bit of everything, as the bookstore\/performance space will play host to a fundraiser for dublab, a nonprofit Web-radio collective featuring “beat music,” which event coordinator Menchie caliboso describes as “an intersection of hip-hop and electronica” streamed across the Internet by a coterie of roughly two dozen DJs.<\/p>\n

In addition to live DJ sets by the likes of Matthewdavid, Jonwayne, and  DJ  Cornejo, Saturday’s fundraiser will feature live sets by a strong list of Long Beach musical talent, including Alyssandra Nighswonger<\/a> and recent Buskerfest contestant Miniature Houses<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The suggested donation for this all-ages event (which runs from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m.) is $7, though “no one will be turned down for lack of funds,” says the Facebook event page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you can’t make it down, you can hear the whole thing live on dublab.com<\/a>. So tune in and turn on, one way or the other.<\/p>\n
